Resolution would recognize civil rights leader By Joyce Zabiiskie Senior reporter of The Signpost Though some senators disagreed, several student senators sponsored a resolution to designate an Open Hour in recognition of civil rights activist Malcolm X during the ASWSU Senate's Monday meeting. "This resolution does not support Malcolm X, but allows others to view his ideals' said Dion Contreras. Henry Rudolph and Cheryl Arnett also sponsored the resolution. Social Science Senator Robert Nelson objected to the resolution because he felt history viewed Malcolm X as a violent man and his views on separation of races was unacceptable to civil rights organizations. "When we deal with civil rights, Malcolm X was on the wrong track. He wasn't even accepted by his own -people." Scott Robinson, non-traditional student senator Scott Robinson, non-traditional senator, agreed with Nelson. "When we deal with civil rights, Malcolm X was on the wrong track. He wasn't even accepted by his own people," he said. Business and Economics Senator Mark Mathson questioned the need of a resolution. Contreras said Malcolm X was a mere tool in society's hands as was Dr. Martin Luther King. "If President Bush can declare war on another nation, then why can't I present this resolution?" Contreres said. Further debate on the resolution was moved to next week, as was the rest of the agenda for the second week in a row.

Haanstad has been teaching at Weber State for four years and takes her job very seriously. She hopes her classes are challenging enough, but still a place where students can learn and participate. "I hope that the students and those who nominated and chose me for this award perceive me as a dedicated and yet challenging teacher, but also as one who supports the student in the classroom. I also hope that those who selected me did so because they perceive me as having a high value for teaching," she said.
